At the time I thought he had all but signed, but something/someone turned his head

We didn't want him anyway

..far too young for you anyway

Fieldhouse is from Warrington, plus we have a number of fullbacks, Scott has signed for us once and then gave 'backword' plus do we need any more half backs? we have two good young lads in the reserves awaiting their chances, good luck to all those players.

scott not signed out yet,he talking to a few clubs at moment like a few other players,word gets out lads talk to clubs then next thing they have signed.

Oh dear, someone at Barrow has jumped the gun. That said, no doubt that Scott should be playing professionally somewhere - he's an excellent player and will do well wherever he goes.

they want him go for trial thats all,but yes someone always jumps the gun ha ha thats folk for ya in it.

4 week trial, i think

After 4 weeks with des and schoey i think he'll be happy to back at the miners.

The thing that's most impressive is that if Leigh East or Leigh Miners lose a player which they both could end up doing here in Fieldhouse and O'Brien. Both clubs have such a good step up that players from the 2nds/18s can step into the 1st team and do as good a job, although they both are big losses for both teams when they don't play.

The mark of a good amateur side is that they can produce talent that goes no to play at the highest level.

The mark of a great amateur side is that they can produce talent that goes no to play at the highest level and then replace them with players of a quality to ensure that they are still successful.

well he impressed me greatly last week v barrow, but i was of the impression we had or were about to sign him, but like has been stated he gave back word, its quite simple if somebody does not want to play for you, no matter how good he is then they are not worth it, we only want players were ever they come from who WANT to play for us, good look to him, but thanks we are doing ok a the present. Say we are top of the league.

According to the Barrow forum, O'Brien isn't going on trial there after all after being offered first team rugby elsewhere?

Ive heard that also

Soon to be a Leyther

What position does Ryan Smith play ?.
In the programme from the barrow game it says he's scored 15 trys from 17 starts...pretty impressive.

he's a halfback

ryan smith was at leigh a few yrs back, but was let go i think

played a few games for the academy I do believe

Both played for The Miners yesterday

Thanks for the above info.

What, again?

Talented player he no doubt is can we 'afford' another half back as we do seem to have an abundance of 'riches' in that department

Well Fax have managed well enough for the last few years
